Dogfight Walkthrough

List of Objectives
1 Follow Nightingale
2 Kill the Blind Dogs
3 Return to Nightingale

Follow Nightingale

Follow Nightingale

Follow Nightingale while listening to his dad jokes until you get to the hunting site. There won't be Anomalies or enemies along the way so you can rest easy and focus on following him.

Kill the Blind Dogs

A pack of Blind Dogs will spawn in the area and attack you immediately. Pull out your weapons and try to kill them quickly to avoid getting overwhelmed by their speed and number. A shotgun would be the best weapon to use at close range and a rifle at mid-range.

After that, find and loot the Electric Collar from one of the dead dogs.

Return to Nightingale

Talk to Nightingale to give the Electric Collar to him and get the money from the bet. After that, you can help him with the another Side Mission, Nightingale's Hunt, to help him hunt other dogs in the Lesser Zone.
